The Nautilus Resort/Motel is a luxury selection of accommodation apartments close to Waitangi on the edge of Paihia – the hub of the beautiful Bay of Islands in the Far North of New Zealand. The modern history of New Zealand began right here. The first European settlers landed just a stone’s throw from the Nautilus Resort. It’s just a short walk to the world famous Treaty grounds, where the Treaty of Waitangi was signed in 1840. The Nautilus Resort is a luxurious facility set in exotic subtropical gardens, fringed with palm trees & bordering the native bush covered hills. The Nautilus Resort is only 200 metres from the beautiful, sandy Tii Beach: a crescent of golden sand & sheltered safe waters. Yet the Resort is only 1km from the centre of the village. It boosts a 16metre swimming pool & a fabulous 84 jet spa pool, tennis court, BBQ, kids play area & trampoline as well as ample boat & car parking with washing facilities. The self contained 2 bedroom apartments are priced from $180 per night & the Studios are priced from $110 per night. They are all spacious & comfortable being tastefully decorated & furnished: spa bath & super king beds are a feature of most of the units. An apartment with access facilities & a modern laundry complete the service. Your friendly & accommodating hosts, Mark & Elena Harnden will ensure your stay is a memorable one.
